Believe the pictures! This is a beautiful pond-front property, with all the amenities, and direct access to and exquisite views across Embden Pond, which is more than a pond - the length & width of a lake. We only had time for a short stay to attend a wedding in Harmony, Maine and I only wish we could have stayed longer. The owner was communicative and couldn't have been nicer!

Wonderful layout to the house. Plenty of beds for a crowd. Appreciated the strategically placed motion lights inside and out on a cold and dark ice fishing weekend (caught two nice lakers!). Very well appointed kitchen. Host was very responsive and patient with my naive questions (my wife usually books our vacation rentals). Would love to go back in the summer!

Wonderful lake side retreat

My family had a wonderful time at Embden Lake. The home was spacious and full of necessities for our extended family. The lake was absolutely pristine and crystal clear - perfect for swimming and for young children. Corina was super responsive and a wonderful host.

Wonderful Lake House

Everything is so well thought out at this lake house that makes you feel right at home. We have stayed at many lake houses previously and this one hands down was our favorite. We had more than enough space and things to keep us busy. If you’re looking for a Great Lake house for larger families this one won’t disappoint.

Perfect Getaway on Emden Pond – Peaceful, Beautiful, and Fully Equipped

This cabin is a true gem on Emden Pond — absolutely peaceful, beautifully maintained, and thoughtfully stocked with everything you could possibly need. From the well-equipped kitchen and cozy living space to the fire pit, puzzles, kayaks, and dock, every part of our stay was relaxing and seamless. There was plenty of room to spread out and enjoy, whether we were lounging by the water or gathered inside. The location couldn’t be more perfect, and the cabin itself is a 10/10. We enjoyed every moment and can’t wait to come back. Highly recommend for anyone looking to unwind in nature without sacrificing comfort.

Family Vacation 2021

Hands down the best rental property we have had for family vacation in the last 15 to 20 years. My family and I have been vacationing together since I moved out of state in the late 90s. Every summer we rent a place in a region of Maine, NH or Quebec where we pursue outdoor activities. This house on Embden pond we all agree is the best we have experienced. Wonderful location, clean, and well cared for inside and out. The check in process was easy and all directions from navigating to the house to operating the TV was absolutely spot on. We loved our stay, I am sure you will love yours. My family and I look forward to future visits to Embden Pond.

Amazing Lake Experience

This is our third trip to Emden Pond and our first at this gorgeous Lakehouse. They have 10/10 review ratings for a reason! There is NO stone unturned here…anything you would need is there for a fabulous fun time where you can focus on your family vacation and less about going out for various items! We all enjoyed the large dining/living room playing jenga and watching movies, cooking, kayaking, paddle boarding, swimming, boating, sunset views,cornhole and enjoying time at the fire pit roasting smores and hotdogs! We all had so much fun and truly enjoyed this phenomenal well thought out Lakehouse! We hope to book again next year!!

The dream getaway: gorgeous home, pond, and sunsets!

We haven't been to Embden Pond in years and this house made our return spectacular. The house itself was beautifully decorated and had all of the amenities we could ever need for a lake stay. All of the modern appliances and utensils in the kitchen were extremely helpful for making great family dinners. The couch was SO comfortable; everyone kept falling asleep on it after early mornings. The bedrooms were comfortable and there was plenty of room for everyone. All of the lawn games and water toys were great to have too, they made for many fun evenings. The outdoor fireplace and patio were great entertainment spots and brought everyone together. The beautiful yard was where everyone spent most of their time; plenty of comfortable chairs and the best spot for watching the sunset! We had gorgeous sunsets every night of our stay, as the sun set on the other side of the lake directly across from the house. The pond itself is so clean, with crystal clear water and no weeds at all. The only thing that left something to be desired was the fishing!!! It is a really hard pond to fish if you're looking for bass. Overall, we couldn't spend enough time here enjoying the house, soaking up the sun, relaxing, and enjoying the lake life. The end of our week here came way too fast! Thank you for such an amazing stay :)
